    Yup, nice one. Accessible but modern, a good listen.
    Interesting that a Lancashire Lad has been taken on by BIS, a Scandinavian recording label.

    Following a tour of Australia recently I've been following Kazakhstan pianist Oxana Shevchenko, quality player, and does hilarious online travel documentaries of the centres she's playing on tour. Just viewing her latest posted performances online now.
    Without music, powerboat racing, photography and a whole stack of other stuff that floats my boat, life is just a non stop procession of deadlines and bills.

    Oxana Shevchenko

    This is good, fine pianism.
    There are quite a few full works on YouTube as well.
